I disagree, any wing would look on an R34, as a matter of fact even if it was made out of cardboard it will still look good

same material as your bumper. whatever your bumper can do, so can this lip.

misconception there, Duraflex is in fact fiberglass BUT, is fiberglass reinforced plastic, meaning they don't use the regular resin which has the cracking a lot property. so duraflex is basically a flexible plastic with fiber glass guts to reinforce it.

compare though, a lip will prolly end up at $350, but that would be the total price including shipping and you don't necessarily have to paint it, front gtr bumper is about 480 shipped+ paint, so a lipt is definitely a lot cheaper than a full bumper

by the way, I tried to put a+b together but I don't have the right angle on the white max to match the angle on the gtr. but still managed to get it in there somehow.




I also did this one a while back so I'll put it up again.

This is a very rough photochop...

something like the stillen lip which masks the lower half of the front bumper.



My only concern is:

on attaching it, i assume clips or some basic screws from the bottom will be used.

id like to see on the edge of the lip where it meets the bumper. a rubber a long the whole edge. like toyota does with their ground kits for the camry. ill see if i can dig a picture or two up.

ok, lets not get to ahead of our selfs, , stock kits will of course fit way better and have rubber around the edges to make it look as OEM as possible, but remember that its an OEM part and they make thousands of it so they can spend a lot of money for the development and manufacturing of a part and will make profit due to quantity, so lets try to keep this simple :P,

Also all the photoshops you see here are merely a representation of an idea, so for those of you who are worried about clearance issues, lets just say the lip will stay whit in 2 2.5" to make sure it works for OEM suspension as well as after market

Oh yeah totally understandable. i think whether it came with a rubber or not, it could be something someone could do on their own.

i just wish nissan offered something! then we wouldnt have this problem! lol

The first one is too aggro and the second doesn't seem to have a clean fit

i agree... i think the lip should add just a lil bit of agression towards the front end...not quite as menacing as the GTR kit..which i think looks great..but subtle and aerodynamically designed...i still like Leets 1st idea...
